Sprouting Lentils and more!

We're trying something new here this week...sprouting stuff.  Now, you might notice that this blog is garden centric, so of course I sprout things all the time, but this time is slightly different because the sprouts are to be eaten and the materials are coming from the grocery store instead of the nursery.

First on the list?  lentils.

PS - These pots...my favorites ever.  They are from IKEA and priced ridiculously cheap and they are as tough as any terra cotta pot from any garden store.  Plus, they are that beautiful shade of greyish-brown and that kind of chalky finish comes with.  LOVE.  I cannot walk in that store without buying 1 or 2 more...seriously...y'all are going to start getting gifts in IKEA pots....

Anyway, back to the lentils...I took about 20 (maybe a little more) from a bag in the pantry and pressed them into the soil.  A few days later and....

Here come the sprouts!

The next experiment? 

What are you growing this fall?
